An online cooking workshop Chinese Dining Hall, launched on April 9 by the China Culture Center in Cairo and China Radio International, has ignited people's interest and appetite for Chinese dishes.

It will continue to post cooking demonstrations so viewers will be able to watch and learn to cook a variety of Chinese courses, such as black pepper beef.

The first online video received nearly 100 thousand clicks within 24 hours and reached more than 250 thousand audience members. Participation awards are also set for the most popular participants who post their own videos.

According to China Culture Center in Cairo, the workshop will upload new videos on a weekly basis.
